There are 2 types of taxi available, official and UNOFFICIAL | ||||
|
|
When you find it, you can queue for up to 15 minutes at the taxi rank | ||||
|
|
The greater majority of Parisien taxi drivers don't speak English | ||||
|
|
You won't know the cost of your taxi until you reach your hotel | ||||
|
|
There is an additional charge for baggage | ||||
|
|
The taxi rate does not depend on the distance travelled, it is a combination of TIME taken and distance travelled | ||||
|
|
The majority of taxis in Paris are only licensed to carry 3 people | ||||
|
|
Taxis accommodating 4 people may charge extra | ||||
| WOW!! What does all that mean then? | |||||
| It
means you have to avoid being "hooked" by unscrupulous
unofficial drivers touting for business. You have to locate the taxi rank
and join the queue. When finally inside your cab you've got to try and communicate
to the driver where you want to go and hope that he both understands you
and knows where you want to go. It means that you hope that he takes you
on the most direct route to your hotel. You also have to hope that you don't
meet heavy traffic (Paris is notorious for it) which will slow you down
and increase your bill. Finally, you have to hope that he correctly charges
you for your baggage, as this charge is not shown on the meter. What it really all means is that........... |

Remember, when you've booked and paid for your transfer in advance, there's nothing more to pay. You don't have to take extra cash with you for your transfer, and what's more, if you also book your return to the airport as well, you won't have to keep some money back at the end of your holiday (and worry how much!!). |
|||||
| Taxi
fares from the airport can cost anything from £25 to £35 and
depending on your hotel location, the level of traffic and the time of day,
sometimes even more. Our fares are extremely competitive and offer excellent value for money. OK you're not going to pay less than the cheapest taxi fare, but then again you will definitely pay less than the most expensive, as well of course as receiving our exclusive and inclusive "door to door" service.
